Hi,
Is there anybody successfully using skype on OpenBSD 4.1 using Linux emulation?

If so which RPM are you using?
Thank you so much
Kind Regards

O.K with the help of Martynas Venckus I got Skype running on 4.1

had to copy
libasound.so.2 => /usr/lib/libasound.so.2

libsigc-2.0.so.0 => /usr/lib/libsigc-2.0.so.0
to the openbsd system as told in
http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=compat_linux&sektion=8
Had problems with running skype.

Martynas helped me there too :-) Thanks a million friend.
When you restart skype you cannot login as it would give the error
"Another skype instance may exist"
so the work around followed now is wipe out whole ~/.Skype directory

and it works again.
I can chat but cannot make phone calls
It gives the error
Call Failed : Problem with audio playback
Thank ou so much :-)
Kind Regards
Siju

It is unlikely that Skype will ever work on OpenBSD for more than

chatting, as it uses ALSA for audio output (same as Flash 9.)
That's not something compat_linux(8) can handle, only OSS audio output

is emulated.

(BIG png, watch out, I don't want to kill your modem connection)
was working fine. I installed it as an exercise and then deleted it...

because I don't use it
